Chapter 235 Found something
Nan Xiao fixed his gaze on the silent young man behind Su Xun.
After not seeing each other for two years, Lu Huai has grown a lot taller. In the past, he was half a head shorter than his fourth senior brother when standing together, but now he is even taller.
Even though he had just killed the monster, the sword in the boy's hand was still dripping with blood. He was dressed in white, but it was spotless and he didn't look disheveled at all.
He has a very handsome appearance, with bright and clear eyes and a natural coldness, giving people the illusion of being gentle and innocent.
He has grown up in the past two years, and his facial features have become more three-dimensional. Nan Xiao sees in him the gentle yet aloof temperament of the eldest senior brother.
On the surface, he seems polite to everyone, but in fact he ignores them.
They are worthy of being the soldiers led by the eldest brother.
"Junior brother, don't you recognize me? Hmm~" She said in a long, teasing voice: "You didn't even say hello?"
The sword in Lu Huai's hand fell to the ground unconsciously. He took two steps forward and hugged her directly. His voice was a little hoarse, with a hint of grievance: "I know you, Xiaoxiao. I missed you so much that I thought I was dreaming and was a little afraid to recognize you."
Nan Xiao was stunned. The tone was still that of the familiar Lu Huai.
She patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Where's An? She's out now."
Lu Huai has been sticking to her since he was a child. This is the first time they have been apart for such a long time. I guess he is a little uncomfortable with it.
Su Xun frowned and immediately rescued Nan Xiao from Lu Huai's claws.
He pulled Lu Huai to a corner and taught him earnestly, "Junior brother, you and Junior sister are grown up now. You can't act like you did when you were little. Do you understand?"
Seeing that Lu Huai didn't say anything, he continued, "Be careful about the degree of control."
Lu Huai said seriously: "I know, that's why I'm only friends with Xiaoxiao."
"I did not mean that."
"Fourth Brother, you are so stupid."
Now it was Su Xun's turn to be confused.
He seemed to have discovered something...
···
Nan Xiao stood there and shook her head. Well, Fourth Senior Brother has changed. Now he doesn’t even include her when he talks in private. After all, their feelings have faded.
When Jian Mo saw her two annoying fellow students leave, she took her hand and talked to her affectionately for a long time.
"Xiaoxiao, I miss you so much."
"Senior Sister Jian, me too."
The two chatted for a while, and Nan Xiao greeted Chen Wenxuan and Zhuo Hua.
Finally, he walked up to Mingcheng.
"Here, your bow. I've taken good care of it these past two years. Look."
Nan Xiao handed the bow to him.
Mingcheng's gaze lingered on her fair wrist for a moment, then he turned his head away awkwardly and put the bow back.
"It's been so long. I haven't had a proper weapon in the past two years. It's not unreasonable to charge extra interest."
"Not too much, you say."
Mingcheng just stared at her. This little girl seemed to have really grown up. He actually saw stability in her. It was really weird.
"I haven't thought about it yet. I owe you."
He added: "There are two of them."
Nan Xiao: “…”
Do I need to be reminded of this specifically?
Is she that kind of person? Yes, she is.
"Okay."
One promise is a debt, two promises are also a debt, and too many debts will never burden you.
······
Outside the forbidden area, a group of demon soldiers are stationed.
The leader was Ming He, who also brought Hei Wu and Hei Shisan with him. They watched the scene and no one knew how long they had been waiting outside.
"Second cousin."
"Young Master."
Nan Xiao and the others spent some time and just came out of the forbidden area, and this was the scene they saw.
Mingcheng frowned unconsciously when he saw them. Chen Wenxuan and the others also became silently alert.
"Why are you here?"
As soon as Ming He opened his mouth, he was like a chatterbox, saying everything at once.
"It's you, second cousin! My eldest cousin had you grounded, yet you're all alone, following a human to a place like this. It was my eldest cousin who sent us here to wait for you." He pointed at his round, weather-proof face and said, "Look at me! I've been waiting for you here all this time, sleeping in the open air. I've become haggard."
Mingcheng: “….”
He didn't notice it at all, and instead gained a lot of weight.
Hei Wu bowed and said, "Young Master, I have something to report."
"explain."
Hei Wu looked at the people around him and whispered in his ear, "The Demon Heart Pearl has been confirmed to be in Anyang City. Your Excellency asks you to make a decision as soon as possible."
“…”
Ming He saw Ming Cheng talking about serious matters with his subordinates, so he tactfully did not interrupt them. Instead, he looked at Nan Xiao and the others.
The moment Ming He saw Nan Xiao and Jian Mo, his eyes lit up.
He took cheerful little steps, running in front of the two of them, his eyes narrowed into slits with laughter, and began to spread his feathers like a peacock.
"Two beautiful ladies, I am the Young Master He of the Demon Clan. I love beautiful ladies the most. How about you come back with me? I will ensure that you will have food and clothing for the rest of your lives."
"Although you are human, I guarantee that no one will be able to bully you while I am here."
Nan Xiao's mouth twitched slightly. He really hasn't changed at all.
Jian Mo was not so good-tempered and said coldly, "Get lost."
Not only that, except for Chen Wenxuan who was watching the show, the faces of the other three people suddenly turned dark.
But Minghe was still unaware and immersed in his own world.
"He has a temper, and this young master likes it even more."
Just as he was about to take action, Zhuo Hua kicked him eight feet away. Fortunately, a demon guard rescued him in time and prevented him from falling flat on his face.
"What kind of thing is this? How dare you set your sights on my senior sister?"
The moment Zhuo Hua took action, without Ming He saying anything, the surrounding demon guards instantly surrounded everyone.
Ming He rubbed the spot where he was kicked and ordered the demon guards angrily, "Catch them all."
The atmosphere between them suddenly became tense.
Mingcheng saw the commotion here and stopped them: "Stop."
The demon guard was a little hesitant, looking at Minghe and then at Mingcheng, not knowing who to listen to.
Meanwhile, Su Xun and his companions also drew their swords to defend themselves.
Although they had actually been together with Mingcheng for two years and had a little affection for him, he was a demon after all, so they didn't have much hope for him in their hearts.
If he said something wrong, they would just rush out from here and kill him.
Ming He rushed directly to Ming Cheng's feet, hugged one of his legs, and began to complain at the top of his lungs: "Second cousin, this human kicked me, catch them and feed them to my Da Huang."
Mingcheng's eyebrows twitched, and he knew what had happened without thinking.
He scolded, "Get out, or I'll send all the witches out of your house."
Ming He didn't dare to speak for a moment and squatted aside with a wronged look on his face.
Mingcheng gave a look and the demon guards dispersed instantly.
Su Xun and others still did not let down their guard.
Mingcheng pulled a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth and said to Nan Xiao: "Let's talk alone."
Lu Huai grabbed her arm, the worry in his eyes was self-evident.
"It's okay, wait for me here."
